It was the first machine to smash particles together with energies in excess of 1 trillion electron-volts—or 1 TeV, whence its name.

它是第一台实现粒子在高能量1TeV下碰撞的机器，它也因此得名。

Because nobody knows what the mass of a Higgs boson might be, the particle must be hunted indirectly, typically in giant machines that propel particles to near-light speed, then smash them together and generate an array of other subatomic particles.

Still, that was then and this is now, so let's turn the question over to you once more to see if we can smash our heads together and get some knowledge to fall out.
